Alicia Keys – Not Even The King Lyrics

Some people so poor all they got is money Oh, in darkness Some people wait till they count all their assets I don’t care what they bring, They can have everything

They can’t afford what we got, Not even the king They can’t afford what we got, Not even the king

Castles, it’s as almost they’re good in castles Šurrounded by people they ain’t been afraid, That’s not what they take home

Oh, I don’t care what they bring, They can have everything

They can’t afford what we got, Not even the king They can’t afford what we got, Not even the king

All the king’s horseš and all the king’s men Charge every ghetto we got They open the crown, and they open the throne But I already got all that I want

All the king’s horses and all the king’s men They came marching through They offer the world just to get what we got But I found the world in you I found a world in you Of innocence

Your arms around me worth more than a kingdom Yeah, believe that But trust’s very real, the king’s never felt that Yeah this is the song we sing We don’t need anything

They can’t afford this This is priceless They can’t afford what we’ve got Not even the king They can’t afford what we got, Not even the king
